Made for those cheese lovers with a taste for robust flavors and aromatic cheeses. Our French Cheeses for the Connoisseur is perfect for a Francophile-centric fromagier, or anyone looking to enjoy some bold selections of French cheese classics. We have included four of our favorites (a virtually impossible decision).
Cheeses include:

Pont L'Eveque: One of the world's ancient cheeses, Pont L'Eveque is a small washed-rind cheese that dates back to the Thirteenth Century. It is well known for its delicate bouquet, which is said to be reminiscent of the Norman countryside. However, it does tend to have a strong, pungent aroma that is not for the timid. (8 oz)

Comte Reserve: Comte is made with fresh Alpine milk and formed into 80-pound wheels. This extraordinary cheese is a noticeable upgrade from our base Comte, more complex and nutty. Comte Reserve has a pronounced nose and is a divine treasure cherished by connoisseurs. (7.5 oz)

Buche de Chevre: This wonderful goat's milk cheese from Poitou in the Loire Valley comes to us in handcrafted wooden crates the most exquisite chevre we have ever tasted! When enjoying this cheese, you savor a delightful combination of flavors and textures in each bite. Buche de Chevre is a true delicacy that begs for a warm, crusty French baguette and a glass of robust red wine from neighboring Bordeaux. (7.5 oz)

Fourme d'Ambert: This AOC (name controlled) creamy blue cheese is a lovely French treasure. Fourme d'Ambert is cave-aged for a minimum of two months, made from raw cow's milk and has a tremendous, creamy, full-bodied flavor. (7.5 oz)

Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

This was a birthday gift for my foodie boyfriend. He absolutely loved it! We have tried each of the cheeses and they are all wonderful by themselves or used in cooking. They do each have a distinct strong aroma, so be prepared to use ziplock or tupperware when storing them.

Good Cheeeeez

Got this for my girlfriend on Valentine's day. She loved it, and even shared some with me too!

good cheese

The cheeses were very good but nothing unique but at least the price was good. I can get in any cheese shop or [ ]. I was looking for something close to what I had in Paris. We don't allow raw milk cheese and it makes all the difference. Pont L'Eveque was not strong at all. I have a gruyere thats much stronger.

French Cheeses for the Connoisseur Assortment

This is my second time to send this particular package to my siblings for Christmas gifts. I haven't sampled it; however, reports from my family are that the packaging was great (I chose the cold bag) and the cheeses were fantastic. I will order again!!!!

Wonderful chees and outstanding customer service

Purchased this for our brother-in-law and sister. He lived in France for 20 years. They loved the selection. Also, the company and their customer service were outstanding. Will be purchasing annually from this company.

Combination or separate

I like the variety of the cheese presented in this assortment. All are great with fruit, wine and crackers, but I also discovered that they can be used for cooking! When I got down to smaller leftover portions, I decided to experiment, shredded them and made some macaroni and cheese, combining the cheeses. I covered the casserole with panko crumbs and baked it - there wsa some grease (we are talking natural cheese here after all), but that was easily resolved by just skimming it off (most was absorbed by the panko crumbs).
